Academic Paper Title Page

A flat overhead photograph of a single A4 academic paper title page printed on bright white smooth paper, lying alone on a matte light-grey desk. The layout is restrained and typographic. At the very top, a thin horizontal hairline rule, then a small all-caps line in dark grey serif reading "JOURNAL OF QUIET STATISTICS · VOLUME 12 · ISSUE 3 · MAY 2026". Roughly one third down, a centered title in a generously sized serif reads exactly "On the Half-Life of Footnotes: a longitudinal study of citation decay in slow-moving fields". Beneath the title, in italic smaller serif, the author block reads "Dr Yael Brandt-Okonkwo and Marisol Devereux". Below that, in micro grotesk, the affiliations "Halford Institute for Bibliographic Studies" and "Department of Information Ecology, Northbrae University". A horizontal hairline divides this from a centered "ABSTRACT" header followed by a tight justified paragraph of 7 lines beginning "We examined 4,318 footnotes drawn from three disciplines over a twenty-year window...". At the bottom, footer reads "Received 12 March 2026 · Accepted 1 May 2026 · Pages 211 to 247". Soft even daylight, faint paper shadow, subtle paper texture visible. Palette: paper white, ink black, single accent of dark sage on the hairlines.
